1. It is simple, at Tripleclicks Homepage, go to LOCALIFE at the bottom of the page, then select VIEW MORE, select the search radius in between 10 to 500 miles, all the products offered by ECAs in your city/area will appear.
2. For complete listings of all ECAs, at SFI Homepage, select ECA report under Reference Tab. At same page you can find different country listings by clicking underlined blue colored "HERE". Then Select your country, the listings of ECAs in your country will appear,

I ran an ad in the Thrifty Nickle or your local newspaper people still read the paper is a good way to contact people in your area.

Our local newspaper runs a special every year called the Business & Service Directory. It lists all of the local businesses by category/type of business, and then on the inside pages, there are mini business card advertisements. If your area provides a listing like this, you can start sending out flyers and/or postcard mailers to different types of businesses.

You can also look at the business' websites to get a feel for the type of company they are and if they promote things that

It can be done in following ways:

1.Post an ad in the local newspaper.
2.Run your own ad on the local cable operator.
3.Personally visit the big stores/shops in your city and tell them the benefits of joining as an ECA.
4.Visit local marketing areas like FREE TRADE ZONES and Industrial Areas.
5.Visit the local small scale industries and tell them about marketing as an ECA.

I believe the most important understanding of your question is finding businesses in your local area willing to become ECAs. Of, course buying from local ECA's is supporting your TripleClicks Store and will help your business but we can increase our income tremendously by signing up ECA's under us. This will create good residual income. Now how do we do it?

Work. We can all send out cards, hang flyers, or advertise in the local newspapers but nothing will replace a face to face meeting.

I post TC flyers everywhere I go. They are effective and very low cost. TC Cards are another great way to promote, especially at yard sales. I also recommend that if you have facebook, try talking to your friends personally, and see if they need a side income.

You can make promotional pamphlets with your contact number and distribute it in houses, offices, etc. and also paste it on nearby bus stops, banks, gardens, public places etc., so that people of the city can contact you.

You can advertise in local newspapers/magazines to get more members, according to your budget.

You can also advertise on paid advertising sites like Google Adwords, Adbrite, Bidadvertiser etc.

You can also find mobile numbers of local people in newspapers,

This question does not express the full idea that is being asked and it is very frustrating to read answers covering two different questions.

If the real question is "How do I find businesses in my area who will become ECAs", then the answer should deal with finding and recruiting potential ECAs. And some have answered thusly.

But the question reads more like "How can I find ECAs (that I can support and not have to pay shipping)in my own area", then the answer
